Jerma argues with Jeremy Editor: Jack Clishem @JackClishem / jackclishem Originally Streamed June 5th 2023 Main Channel / jerma985 Twitch Stream: / jerma985
In 2001 when Andy Serkis was doing character research for Gollum, he stumbled across Jerma in a Wal-Mart parking lot storm drain and spent several months learning the ins and outs of such a lifestyle. We owe Serkis’ stellar performance to Jerma.
he IS chat's mom - stuck listing to their inane and meaningless sounds smashed together, trying to corral them into something resembling normalcy, calming them by playing characters and using funny voices: he's basically just always jangling keys in front of a bunch of easily entertained toddlers
i'm glad this happened because Jerma is SCARILY similar to Gollum; they're both tiny men who do crazy things and frequently argue with voices in their heads
The fact that he stopped paying attention to the game and started talking about random philosophy and nonsense recounting the LOTR story halfway through really speaks to the mind-numbing nature of this game.
The thing is, he arguably has a point. Look, numerical values to review a game is very arbitrary, cuz, if you define the value as "this represents the average of this game vs all the games in existence", then this game is a solid 6. Consider that 99% of all videogames in existence, are early access games on steam that were abandoned by the dev, asset flips that are so broken they are completely unbeatable, or last a solid hour of... well not gameplay, more of a walking simulator. When one considers these disasters compose the vast majority of games in existence, then a game that you can actually beat like Gollum, is, "technically", a 6. And we know Jerma is like this, he is very literal with his terms sometimes, so the logic I am proposing here is probably the way he was thinking about it.
It astounds me that Jerma knows the name Celebrimbor, and proceeds to summarize the Green Lantern lore. He should play the official My Little Pony mobile game by Gameloft.
Jerma should do a funeral stream when he passes in like 60 years. Let’s brainstorm some audience interactions: - audience picks the music (can play new track random track every 5 mins, anything from TH-cam) - audience is the pall bearer, uses the chat to move Jerma’s coffin to his grave by sending direction inputs - audience votes to kick attendees from the funeral
Can't believe Jerma has grown into the most sucessful speedrunner of The Lord of the Rings: Gollum. Can't wait to see where his speedrunning career will take him after making millions from this venture to spend on the Family Guy MMORPG.
I was on the fence about this purchase, but the bug comedy pack from the "Precious Edition" is so awesome, my friends and I have been belly laughing for the last 5 hours!
I zoned out while watching this and when I started paying attention again the first thing I heard was “You spent seventy thousand dollars on the family guy game?! Grandpa, what the fuck are you doing?!”
jerma has given me existential dread. i wanted to watch a silly gollum game and now im afraid to die because im thinking about what jerma said at 19:23
Jerma: *says the ringbears summon gandalf like captain planet* Me: That doesn't sound right but I don't really know enough about the Simarillion to dispute it.
the funniest part is Gollum is like half a millennia old by LotR and they're presenting him in this with hair as if he is a young Gollum. I mean Smeagol is a grown dude in LotR so the people making this game hadn't even watched LotR.
From what I've heard, the person running Tolkien's estate is really anal about streaming and video games, and getting them to go along with either of them is a really low chance. They wouldn't let them use the movie appearance of Gollem, so the devs had to make it different.
How the fuck does Jerma explain the plot of Lord of The Rings so loosely, and yet still know about the blue wizards??? Truly an incomprehensible being.
I've always wondered why people considered 5/10 the lowest score you could give a game, finding out thats being compared to the failing school grade in American schools does a lot towards explaining that to me. 50/100 in Australian schools is still a pass, its just what you give the lowest possible effort thats still technically ticking the criteria off the task (like a licensed game that is everything the company asked for and nothing more). It's certainly a game that mostly runs and looks fairly acceptible if you ignore every rigged model in the game. 5/10 from me too. A game of all time.
19:38 When talking about death, Jerma talks about living hundreds of years "up here" referring to earth. That means that Jerma is from "down there", ie hell. Jerma being a literal demon is confirmed. Thats why he talks so much about eating humans and leaving them in his fridge after putting them in a meat grinder.
How did they not even get Gollum's voice right?! So many people can do a better impression. You can even hear Jerma make better impressions IN this video! Did they even try?!
the parallel between chat arguing with jerma and smeagol arguing with gollum is nothing short of artful and groundbreaking
one guy won the argument
It broke new ground!
@@yanipheonu I clapped when I recognized it
pz character
What Jermas chat has to say on a day to day basis is less reasonable and more hateful than anything Gollum had to say.
In 2001 when Andy Serkis was doing character research for Gollum, he stumbled across Jerma in a Wal-Mart parking lot storm drain and spent several months learning the ins and outs of such a lifestyle. We owe Serkis’ stellar performance to Jerma.
the deep lore
Thank you jerma for being a disgusting small freak that lives in sewers and eats live fish.
Serkis andy
Jeremiah's comments are getting meaner and meaner every day :')
poor 16yo jeremy
He wanted to like this game so badly. He tried so hard to. It wouldn’t let him.
heartbreaking.
For the game had a will of its own. The will of sauron.
I'm always amazed anyone can like a game so horrendously bad. I've seen people defend worse.
I like how the 'normal' or 'sane' person Jerma imitates is always like a super neurotic stressed out mom
he IS chat's mom - stuck listing to their inane and meaningless sounds smashed together, trying to corral them into something resembling normalcy, calming them by playing characters and using funny voices: he's basically just always jangling keys in front of a bunch of easily entertained toddlers

“Jerma talks to his chat like easily bored apes who will rip him apart” paraphrasing.
@@mask-mimic Bored apes? Like the NFTs? 🤔
@@yeoyh3256 he's gladys from billy and mandy
Spoiler alert: he didn't collect all 5 fingers, nor did he restrict blood flow to Gollum's throat
Smh he didn't even find a new diaper
Bruh, he nearly got a WR on blood flow, 3:36
He didn't even manage to convince Gollum that he is a piss baby!
@@japanesecoffeemusic to be fair the piss baby achievement is incredibly difficult on the first run
@@Chillerll Vinny got Piss Baby ending first try, but then again he was trained to play games incorrectly as a joke by his older brother Binny
I’ll never forgive Jerma for filming The Hobbit movies
And had the audacity to release that awful show
Its fine tho bc I will
I heard he's directing the Gollum biopic
i love how jerma knows all the deep-cut lore but can't remember the plot of any of the books or movies
Idk I cried when they showed Celebrimbor’s skull being crushed by Sauron’s epic ring punch 😢😢😢
He knows the fuckin guy who created the rings of power but he doesn’t know what the Nazgûl are called 😭
Jeremy won the argument with Jerma.
Jerma won the argument with the Greedy Grinner
I love how at the end he still says “that was fun” cos he’s just so used to saying it when he finishes playing a game
I bet he does that after a bad movie too
He also says it after sex
@@durleywanger2801 how do you know?🤨
@@seanunknown6868 🙂
jerma after playing the worst thing you’ve ever seen: “yeah good game! good game. like 5/10 :)”
Gollum looking like a coco melon kid is so underrated
cock o melon
khukh-ah-melon*
This game would honestly be vastly improved if it were based on Curious George rather than LOTR
what an incredible and baffling comment thank you
You just gave us a glimpse into an alternate universe where this was a Curious George game, instead of a LOTR game.
Happy to see he's being put in the thumbnails again!
Wicked funny
I like that he's not pulling a weird or unhinged face in this one too. Just nice, normal Jeremy.
Authentic bug eating experience with Gollum, the ultimate Jerma's power fantasy.
If only Gollum was a hot bug eating doctor, then maybe Jerma would’ve liked the game. 😢
I can't separate fiction from reality with Jerma anymore can someone tell me if he used to est bugs or if that was a tumblr post or something
I wish the editor kept in the part where jerma asked what insect he would be and then he said “i think i would be an ant”
i'm glad this happened because Jerma is SCARILY similar to Gollum; they're both tiny men who do crazy things and frequently argue with voices in their heads
And fictional. I'm so glad Jerma doesn't actually exist.
the fact that he name-checked celebrimbor is FASCINATING.
I'm more impressed that he knew the two blue Wizards
@@owenmcmanus6075 that was a good pull!
He saw CGP Grey's video.
He LOVES tolkien
He can't admit publicly that he did the voice acting for the game. All the voice acting.
Hear that wind? THAT'S HIM!
I am so much more interested in a Gollum Jerma cosplay than a Catboy Jerma cosplay
So you wanna see Jerma in nothing but loincloth?
My man 🤝
@@wladx6362i wanna see him in a loincloth scurrying around the floor looking for bugs to eat
Catboy Gollum cosplay
all 3 at same time, take it or leave it
BOTH
Jerma: "Today is just a funny bad game stream haha"
Jerma, 1 hour into Gollum: " What happens after death?"
my favorite detail about this game is that gandalf looks like serj from system of a down
After all, Serj was voiced by Gandalf
Gandalf to Saruman: You! How do you own the world?
i really do love how gollum looks like dream in his music video
so basically jerma looks like dream ??

The fact that he stopped paying attention to the game and started talking about random philosophy and nonsense recounting the LOTR story halfway through really speaks to the mind-numbing nature of this game.
7:27 I like to think that halfway through the orc died of shame from the fact that Gollum was actually putting up a decent fight against him.
I thought I saw Jerma on the walk home from work the other day, but it was just an otter with its head stuck in a yogurt pot
where do you live that you can casually see an otter on your walk home?
@@cryptidcorviid I thought it was Jerma
i love that jerma can finally play a lord of the rings game as himself!!!!
You can already play as Gimli in the PS2 games he played.
“Im throwing away my humanity Jojo!” *Puts on 1 to 1 Jerma face
Jerma and Gollum have a lot in common. But I think the most substantial similarity is that we only like them because we feel bad.
It's the dumptruck
Also the voice and the bad odor
Pity? It was pity that stayed Santa’s hand.
@@blumpus8150 ah yes, my favorite hobbit from lotr, santa
For me its the height.
its important to add that by the end of the stream he rated this game a SIX
60% D-
Unacceptable
See Me After Class
Like, I kinda get what he was saying, but also… nahh lol
@@sideways5153 6%, max grade is 100

bro if i say someone looks 5/10 they look average, i'm not saying they look D- unacceptable see me after class
@@icecold1805 I don't know if we can decipher what jerma was thinking here, he could have just been making a joke. But true, true, true, and true.
People telling jerma he’s a fake fan forget that he fought in the omega extended edition of helms deep
It astounds me that Jerma knows the name Celebrimbor, and proceeds to summarize the Green Lantern lore. He should play the official My Little Pony mobile game by Gameloft.
I feel that he’d unironically play that game.
@@Dr.Oofers I feel like we should form a petition and pressure him into it.
Jerma should do a funeral stream when he passes in like 60 years. Let’s brainstorm some audience interactions:
- audience picks the music (can play new track random track every 5 mins, anything from TH-cam)
- audience is the pall bearer, uses the chat to move Jerma’s coffin to his grave by sending direction inputs
- audience votes to kick attendees from the funeral
This is just among us with extra steps
- audience can aim cinder block catapult through chat inputs
$100 donation to activate confetti cannon
Nice proposals but let's be realistic and acknowledge that when he passes away we will all disappear because we're figments of his imagination.
Fun fact: Jerma will be 60 in 4 years, he's almost on his deathbed
Streamer gains control of a character and immediately jumps off a cliff.
And then forces the character to jump off as well.
I like how he challenged himself to get to the worst part of the game as fast as possible.
the funniest part about jerma playing the gollum game is how EVERY comment is about how jeremy and gollum are the same guy in some way
so surreal to watch him narrate over footage of a day in his life
this feels like it will fit right in classic jerma videos where he just plays really undercooked games
also, im pretty sure the current speedrun of gollum might be 12 hours
So cool that Jerma lent his likeness to the game devs for this hyper realistic gollum experience.
Jerma saw *Black Mirror: White Christmas* and was so existentially traumatised he wrote his entire will around it.
"teachers don't hand out 1s and 2s" jerma it's a video game not a geometry test
5:51 Jerma making two sounds at once, bizarre. He is turning into Gollum, as I predicted.
21:45 I like to imagine this is the average Gondorian soldier's understanding of the lore
Blind speedruns are actually an amazing idea though.
Was not prepared for Jerma's death brain prison nighntmare in the middle of the funny gollum game.
He probably wants to like this game so much since he did all the motion capture for gollum
I love how Jerma talked about this game in one of his streams with Ster, and chat didn't believe him
I like how he can't give this game a real compliment without heavily exhaling shortly after
Jerma is my favorite kind of Gollum, kinda like how Gandalf is a certain type of Gollum, just without the magic
After all men and Hobbits aren't far apart.
Can't believe Jerma has grown into the most sucessful speedrunner of The Lord of the Rings: Gollum. Can't wait to see where his speedrunning career will take him after making millions from this venture to spend on the Family Guy MMORPG.
14:34 I can’t stop laughing
I was on the fence about this purchase, but the bug comedy pack from the "Precious Edition" is so awesome, my friends and I have been belly laughing for the last 5 hours!
I zoned out while watching this and when I started paying attention again the first thing I heard was “You spent seventy thousand dollars on the family guy game?! Grandpa, what the fuck are you doing?!”
I love gaming, and I love gollum. Suffice to say this video will be right up my alley
I once got a 3/100 points on a midterm for thermodynamics. So, yes, teachers do give out 1's and 2's.
Geez man I’m sorry
This game looks like it was made in the playstation Dreams game
7:45 HE LOVES MUG 🍺🍻🍻🍻🍺🍺
based pfp
I bet Gollum and Jerma would have a MUG moment together
Chat won the argument.
not gonna kill the beetle, he paid 4 dollars for it
So far, learning Jerma is a MUG root beer guy is the best part of this game. MUG Supremacy!
Mug tastes like medicine
@Hervis Daubeny your mom tasted like medicine
@@hervisdaubeny2784 What medicine have you been having?! All of mine taste bad!
@@hervisdaubeny2784 hey cough syrup do taste pretty good though!
yay sugar water
jerma has given me existential dread. i wanted to watch a silly gollum game and now im afraid to die because im thinking about what jerma said at 19:23
Jerma's Gollum is Mr. Green, and his Smeagol is Steve.
Jerma: *says the ringbears summon gandalf like captain planet*
Me: That doesn't sound right but I don't really know enough about the Simarillion to dispute it.
I thought they were chillin in the celestial plane and god shot them down to earth because it was getting upset or something like that.
So glad that jerma finally gets to play a game that he can relate to so heavily
20:31 someone please animate this
for someone who just liked the movies and didn't care about the lore or books, his halfassed rundown of lotr was kinda nice to listen to!
the funniest part is Gollum is like half a millennia old by LotR and they're presenting him in this with hair as if he is a young Gollum. I mean Smeagol is a grown dude in LotR so the people making this game hadn't even watched LotR.

@@SheepUndefined what if they used book smeagol
Like the old school one where he's a weird hairy beast
I never really process viewer count on twitch, holy shit 21k people watched this man play this?
we musst have the coffee cheetos chicken, precioussss. tricksy little sterses, they steals it from usss. jerma. jerma.
Why does Jerma know the NUMBER of rings given to each species. That’s insane. Knowing Celebrimbor I can forgive.
never forget he prioritized this over game of the century tears of the kingdom
he really paid extra for gollum's iconic emotes
why is no one pointing out he sounds more like dobby than smeagol
unironically the best jerma stream ive ever watched
How the fuck does Jerma explain the plot of Lord of The Rings so loosely, and yet still know about the blue wizards??? Truly an incomprehensible being.
Oh he's gonna love this terrible game
We should throw cinder blocks at him
@@uhoh7545 for his heresy...
I’m sad he stopped playing right before reaching the sex scene…
It’s insane how bad the Gollum VA is
DLC emotes in a single player game is such a strange choice.
Money
You KNOW those were idle animations before some manager walking by thought of the "amazing" idea to monetise them.
Jerma recounting LotR was the best and most infuriating part of this entire dumpsterfire of a game.
After his understanding of what sleep is
Mission steal jermas face begins now...
Jerma has the best tldr of the lord of the rings plot

15:01 Look at that f*cking right hand there
I cant believe Jerma streamed the entire Lotr trilogy while naked
Remember Jerma thinks this is a 5/10 which means he believes it's half way to perfect
Jerma: "We have been developing games for how long and we still have intros that are insanely loud"
Also Jerma: "Why is this game so quiet?"
It was so nice of them to make a game about Jerma.
what if you were walking by a cave and you just heard gollum furiously beating his meat like id shoot myself
Thinking about Gollum having meat is horrifying. What the fuck would it look like? I imagine it’d be shriveled, small, and limp as hell.
He DOES look like a cocomelon kid wtf
1:30 gamers when they don't get sensory stimulation for 0.05 seconds.
23:00 Not only does he get everything wrong ever about LOTR lore but he even *freudian grips* AGAIN
19:38 When talking about death, Jerma talks about living hundreds of years "up here" referring to earth. That means that Jerma is from "down there", ie hell.
Jerma being a literal demon is confirmed. Thats why he talks so much about eating humans and leaving them in his fridge after putting them in a meat grinder.
How did they not even get Gollum's voice right?! So many people can do a better impression. You can even hear Jerma make better impressions IN this video!
Did they even try?!
Its not meant to be the Serkis Gollum. The whole game is an adaptation of the books as opposed to the movies.
13:49 blud thought he 🚶
I can’t believe that they made a game all about Jerma. Even his appearance is accurate
0:11
Me having a conversation with myself at 3 AM:
"Mug fucking sucks" this man knows his root beer 🍺
The ghost of Gallagher should come in and be the head crusher. He can live stream it.
